[quote user="cv"] It looks to me from that he might be using an S2 from around 500Hz or 600Hz up [/quote]
Well, I thought about this configuration and it would be hardly possible in the light of what Kevin does. Let pretend that MF is low-pass...

I predict a highly probability that a new wave is coming in high-end audio loudspeakers. The today’s high-end audio the loudspeakers field is in a complex stagnation, the stagnation that will lead to the need to invent a new ways to sell loudspeakers...

I finally got around to reading this issue. What suprised me even more than the horns were some of the comments in the interview / round table discussion they had with some dude from Wilson, one from Overture, and another guy. Big honchos...

Or is the answer very simple, in terms that some people just like tweeters with metal character? I have not heard the Supravox, but it has the usual breakup above the audio band, even a bit stronger than other metal domes, CSD from 4kHz up is not slo...

I went to THE Show again this year, along with a couple of audio friends. This year I was better prepared, with preconceived notions about what I wanted to see/hear, and where to find that gear. I did not try to “cover” the show, at all. I just wa...

I think I have too much time on my hands or use my time in highly stupid fashion but I decided to do today the experiment about witch I was thinking for a while. The experiment was “methodology clean” and lead me to quite interesting discoveries. Sin...

This is about the Focal Utopia TN51 tweeter....
It is hard to imagine not much I like this tweeter, in fact there is something insanely beautiful in this tweeter and from a certain perspective (narrow-certain) I like it even more then the HF o...

I would agree that the Lowther is not hard to beat but the question is where and in whose mind does this competition exist? Is the Lowther, Manger, or other full range single driver in competition with different multi-driver approaches, other single ...

A few months ago, in May of last year in the thread about Listening Rooms and Composers and How to play Bruckner Sound on Audio I have complained that my room is not what I was looking for as I was hoping to have Bruckner Room but I need up with...

The Audio Fedirection guy got a new camera? I bet he did. Anyhow, the pictures are courtesy of Audio Fedirection blog.

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] Still, there is an interesting phenomenon that I never was able to understand. I observe Lamm’s show rooms from I think 1998-1999 to 2006 when I did my last audio show. Surprisingly all Lamm rooms at audio shows sound ...

[quote user="Paul S"]Lamm did choose to use some of the driving ideas from his proven SET amp…[/quote]Yes and no. ML3 design wise, as I understand is, in fact is not as interesting amp and it might be otherwise. Vladimir went for the target marke...

I actually read the review carefully.
My initials sentiments were very accurate. Knowing the Vladimir’s reaction to those thighs I might presume that he also feels that this level of “intelligent writing about audio” is no more intellectu...

Hi Guy,Thanks very much for providing me your insights on the SP10.I have to confess when I initially read your comments I could not help but be astounded that a person involved with a Brit belt driven, light weight, suspended turntable would be usin...

Dave Wilson is a very clever guy who runs the quintessential Robb Report venture. And unlike the usual RR bottle rocket Morons, Dave has really endured. I think this is at least partly because he takes a 2-pronged approach to product and market analy...

After more than 20 years of playing audio game I think only two things are real game changers. DPOLS and Good AC qualityI do not claim I listened to Wilson Speaker in DPOLS but I am sure it was near DPOLS 14 years ago. I remember for the first time...

Well, I do not know what it would mean. Regardless his “constitutional status” Row’s article is much more informative and much more educational for people who have interest in the MAXXes then the brainless saliva dropping that many industry cheerlead...

Personally I am not interested to talk about reviewers, because it is wasted time (they don't review something, they design a Product Placement and maybe they add that they 'like' it...)But, I really would like to know what situation they describe as...

Romy,I got your pointmy answer was to Jordi´s post, I just used your answer to quote him and follow the line.I just mean that it is not "true" that, as jordi wrote, a classical pianist is a "worst" performer just for playing classical, or that a jazz...

Let start from the largest drivers and go down. There are larger then 18” drivers (23” and 30”) but looking at this magnet structures I do not find them serious. I addition to make the 23” cone stiff enough requires a lot of diaphragm’s mass or to us...

There are at least two threads going here. I am onto the idea that Lamm has finally released his latest-and-greatest uber-amp, and I am trying to glean some idea of how it performs, other than the political mirror test. Obviously the...

Gluttons for punishment, Mark and I went to the Newport
Beach audio thing-ee again this year. Generally, I was most struck by how much
lower audio expectations seemed to be, even lower than last year. It seemed
like it’s sunk to the poin...

Well, writing a critical material about the Moronity of
audio videos out there I presumably put myself in a position of a person "who
knows better". The reality of the things is that if I do believe that I
know better and if my task would be t...

Well, there is not really blame in the situation as anyone has good and honorable intentions. Wilson does what they do and Aleksandra might be not your type of speakers but the larges Wilsons do have own charm and charisma. I would argue that 85% of ...

Let's just pretend for the moment that you haven't heard the particular TAD driver Kevin is using , and consider the possibility that for at least for some portion of its frequency range, it has a tone similar to the S2 - perhaps it uses an alnico ma...
